At the old-fashioned Grace Brothers department store, owned by octogenarian 'Young' Mr Grace, the staff at Grace Brothers rarely sold anything, but there were always certainties about the series: Mr Humphries was ''free'', Mrs Slocombe was worried about her ''pussy'' and Young Mr Grace would appear to declare ''You've all done very well!'' Alongside Captain Peacock, Mr Grainger, Mr Rumbold, Mr Lucas and Miss Brahms they filled the store with comic bickering, preposterous sales ideas and almost any excuse for more hilarious costumes and so created one of the sauciest, campest and funniest sitcoms of the decade.
